My dear friend,
You declared recently that you don’t believe in God,
anymore.
I’m not shocked. Life can be pretty
awful cruel at times. It simply is not
always easy, and when one is going through a rough time like you are right now
it’s nigh on impossible to believe that there is a God anywhere out there in
the vast unknown, let alone that He cares about you way down here. You maybe
feel like a grain of sand racing through the desert of time with no purpose,
and no destiny.
Life hasn’t always been easy for me, either. There are times that were desperately dark;
times when I could hardly survive if I tried to look beyond the very moment I
was living in. Facing the whole day was too much. If I was clinging to God’s
hand, I hardly knew it because there was a whirling storm all around me. Not
once, not for one day only, in a vast sea of unrippled joy and gladness, but
many times I used to feel that way. Too
many times to count, and fortunately I don’t have to.
I said I wasn’t shocked that you didn’t believe in God
anymore, but guess what, neither is God. Not even is He offended. He deeply
cares about you…us. You may feel like your hand has slipped from His Big,
strong hand, but that’s no big deal. Just trust Him just a wee tiny bit and He
will carry you to safety. That’s really true. I know from experience. You may not see Him or feel Him during
this time of heartache and despair, but someday, if you just keep (feebly)
holding on you will find out that the storm is
dying down and He was with you
all along.
Admittedly there will
be other storms, but let Christ be your buffer, He can handle them a lot better
than you can, and when you look back you will see that He Did.
